The Conspiracy of the Elites
Chapter 117: the plight of the calibri family

Boom!! Another gunshot rang, reverberating round the huge Calibri mansion, as the commotion from the unexpected assault continued growing stronger. The hidden sniper succeeded in killing another soldier that was trained by the Calibri militia.

Sonia swiftly ran forward, while butchering the assaulters facing her with her dual swords. She had an anxious expression on her face, as she pushed forward, advancing to where her brother laid feebly on the floor.

…

Back in the Sparta republic, when she boarded the warship that her brother was on, the situation at home was finally explained to her.

Her mother, Elizabeth Calibri, was actually not suffering from an illness. She was poisoned. The poison was a very elusive and potent one that her doctor had to test for 2 weeks, before finding it.

Despite the dreadfulness of the poison, the doctor promised that he could take care of it. But, how was the first lady of the Calibri house poisoned?

Investigations quickly started, as the head of the Calibri house, Woods Calibri poured out resources to fund the investigation. After 3 days of rigorous and relentless investigation, the culprit was finally found.

Through some connections, the culprit was traced back to some of the big-name organizations and houses in the Dakra republic.

They later found that the poisoning was the first part of a conspiracy to overthrow the Calibri house, as one of the biggest business empires of Europe. After discovering this conspiracy, Woods Calibri acted immediately.

He ordered for all his children to be brought back home to his mansion, as he reasoned that here was safer.

He had only 2 children, and Sonia was the only one that was outside his direct care. So, he sent her brother to get her.

In the warship, after knowing the true situation, Sonia no longer felt reluctant as she focused on getting back home to see her mom first. She wanted to see the real situation with her own 2 eyes.

After getting back to the Dakra republic, they returned to their family’s mansion safely, without any complications.

That was when she finally had the time to visit her mom. Despite the treatment administered by her highly qualified doctor, her mother still looked feeble and on the verge of death.

For the 2 weeks that the poison remained elusive, it succeeded in wreaking havoc to the organs and systems of the first lady of the Calibri house. Despite her feeble state, she still smiled when she saw her daughter, after so many years.

Seeing her mother’s smile on sighting her, the last strings firmly holding Sonia’s heart finally snapped, as she broke down in tears. She suddenly felt a strong feeling of regret overtake her consciousness.

Why did she run away? Why did she have to leave her mother alone? The doctor, her brother, and everyone else left the room, as she finally had alone time with her mom. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ɴovᴇlꜰirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Despite her weak state, her mother could still talk. After calming down, she started describing her experiences throughout the years to her mom, to cheer her up. She continued, after receiving her approval.

When she reached the part where she met Clark, she blushed a little but continued the story. What motivated her more, was the smile now on her mother’s face, as she listened to her story.

So, she continued this routine for a whole week without any complications. When she ran out of experiences, she exaggerated the parts she liked, while at times completely making new stories to cheer her mother up.

Her mother slowly started recovering her vibrant self, as the poison slowly but gradually cleared out of her body.

They thought the conspiracy was over, now that they were all back in her father’s mansion. Little did they know that this was just the beginning.

It started at exactly 6:00 am. Soldiers invaded the huge Calibri mansion in the thousands, as the area quickly became chaotic. Led by two 3rd rank high-grade soldiers, the anonymous battalion of soldiers assaulted the huge mansion recklessly.

The soldiers stationed in the mansion responded appropriately, as they tried to curb the efforts of the invaders. They tried, but the assaulters were not there to fight a war, they were there to assassinate some key targets.

Their employers told them, to directly ignore the owner of the mansion, Woods Calibri. They made a good decision, as of the 3 high-grade soldiers in the mansion, 2 rushed to his room to protect him.

The last one rushed to the hospital attached to the mansion, to protect the first lady of the house. Most of the remaining soldiers were normal soldiers, only a few were 1st and 2nd rank, high-grade soldiers.

Most of the 2nd rank high-grade soldiers led the others, as they rushed to the 2 young master’s rooms to protect them.

After trying the first lady, and getting no positive results. The assassination targets finally shifted to the 2 children of the Calibri house. The overwhelming assault force moved forward with momentum, as they aimed to kill both children.

Sonia already got her Dakran standard high-grade armor back, when she returned during the last week. She quickly activated it, as she also dived into the battle.

She quickly started navigating around the mansion; she aimed to go to her brother’s room. As she rushed forward, an extremely glaring gunshot suddenly sounded, reverberating all over the battlefield.

Her heart sank, as her brain quickly started picturing the worst-case scenarios. She forced the unsettling feeling in her heart back, as she hastened her advance to her brother’s room.

As soon as she turned around the corner of the long corridor, she despaired, as she sighted the bloody form of her brother from afar.

Daniel Calibri lay feebly on the floor, as blood slowly flowed out of his mouth. As the son of a businessman that dealt in the production of exotic armor, his armor was naturally perverted.

Despite the extreme firepower of the sniper rifle used by the hidden sniper, his armor withstood it. Despite this, his life was still in danger.

His armor withstood it, but his internal organs could not withstand the shock. He felt excruciating pain, he felt like his lungs were squeezed and pulled out of his body savagely.

He could only gasp for breath to fight for his life, as blood slowly seeped out of his mouth.

On seeing this, anxiousness and rage took over Sonia, as she unleashed hell on the assaulters facing her with her dual swords.

She quickly started executing her battle art, as spikes rose from the nearby wall, attaching themselves to her armor.

This was her tuff, this was her battleground. She would not allow these assaulters to wreak havoc in her playground.

As the daughter of a billionaire, and the only one who took the military route in her family, her life was a unique one.

Since her younger days, she squandered her allocated money every month, to get military gadgets that she liked. To her, weapons and gadgets worth billions of Dakran credits were just toys.

After so many years, the mansion was now practically her war fortress. The equipment currently hidden in different parts of the mansion was probably more than those an armory can keep.

As rage gradually clouded her mind, she gave an order through her implant. Though her implant was not as outrageous as Clark’s new implant, it's A. I was also that of high quality.

Her implant’s A. I quickly spread in the virtual network, connecting to all the hibernating weapons of mass destruction. It spread to all the machines like the tentacles of a monster, as it activated all their systems.

All over the mansion, red and blue glows started lighting up, as the systems of various machines booted up.

Boom!! Boom!! Boom!! After understanding the order of the implant, all the machines quickly targeted the assaulting soldiers, as their weapons unleashed hell without restraint.

Artillery vehicles emerged from underground. Mechanical predators that took the shape of different animals emerged, as they all pounced on the invaders.

Tu! Tu! Tu! Tu! Mechanical soldiers emerged, as the ranged ones in their midst fired their guns rapidly at the invaders. A wave of red fire beams erupted from their midst, as all oppositions were wiped to dust.

The melee mechanical soldiers, advanced with momentum like the stampede of a band of rhinos. They eradicated all hostile soldiers that dared to engage them.

This grand display of power was just one of the many highlights of the importance of money. With money, any strong opposition can be smashed through.

With this advantage brought about by her childhood splurging of money, she was finally able to reach her brother’s position. She quickly grabbed him, turned, and rushed directly to her father’s room.

The unexpected appearance of thousands of mechanical war equipment succeeded in disrupting the plans of the invaders. They finally recollected themselves, as they pursued the 2 escaping siblings.

On reaching her father’s room, Sonia could not help her jaw-dropping down in shock. The extremely resilient reinforced exotic walls of her father’s room were breached.

BOOM!! Her eardrums almost burst from the loud noise, as the opposing 3rd rank high-grade soldiers of the opposition battled with her father’s 3rd rank high-grade soldiers.

Blood flowed out of her ears, as she grabbed them with her hands. Despite the pain she felt, she still reacted fast, as she dragged her brother to the corner to avoid the stray bullets flying everywhere.

She finally looked forward, she saw her father tightly hugging her mom, with a huge blue energy shield surrounding them. Her heartfelt like it received a cut, as she saw the frightened expression on her mother’s face.

She could only clench her fists while gritting her teeth to vent her frustration. As a 1st rank high-grade soldier, such a battle was beyond her boundaries.

As the fierce battle raged on, all the invaders started converging to meet at her father’s room. All their targets were now in this room.

Despite the interference of the machinery, they still held the initiative. It only slowed the inevitable, as their overwhelming number steadily advanced.

Sonia could only activate her shield, as just like her parents, she huddled up with her brother behind her defense. Her father already called for reinforcement, but they would take time to arrive.

They could not teleport to the mansion directly, as space stabilizing devices were used to prevent such measures.

Woods Calibri finally felt a feeling that he had not felt in years, desperation. His shield could still hold, but he recognized that the shield defending his children could not hold on any longer.

He clenched his fists, as he made a decision that took a bite at his soul. He decided to use his 2 most valuable possessions, to buy the life of his children.

“I’m sorry for not doing more, please forgive me”. As he muttered, he suddenly gave a command to his implant.

His implant responded instantly, as 2 devices, shining with a blue glow immediately materialized from under the room. The invaders felt a bad premonition on seeing these devices, as they immediately turned to shoot at them.

The small defense covering them protected them, as they suddenly rushed forward, towards opposite ends.

The first one quickly landed on Sonia’s hand, as she raised her head to look at her father doubtfully. Her father caught the other one, as he muttered I’m sorry again, before pressing a button.

On seeing her father’s actions, she also pressed the button on the one in her hand, as she waited to see the reaction.

Bzzz!! Bzzz!! Before the invaders could take more extreme measures, with 2 sounds of the space warping, the 3 Calibri family members disappeared from the mansion.

The leader of the invaders stared with shock, as their targets disappeared before their eyes. “What the hell just happened? What device was that?”
